I finally got the whole drivers side suspension axle inner fender the whole nine yards painted and finished and put back together and I am putting on new brake lines. I have looked at rockauto parts geek etc and cannot find the braided steel brake hose which connects the outer hose to the distribution block on the axle. not sure the size but it looks to be 1/8th " id maybe 14 or 16" long. anyone with info to help please do and thanks in advance.

 

I'm confused, you're workin on the front ?

 

I just did the brakes on mine, and found the flex brake hoses at the local Napa. Be sure to specify that it has the front 4500lb axle (Dana 60) and rear full float (Dana 70). They might try to give you parts for the 3500 lb axle which is the 3/4 ton Dana 44.

 

ok thanks montepig72 i will give the local napa a try

 

Your probably going to have to make a new metal line. It well not come with the steel braiding around the aftermaket ones. You are talking about the metal line that is on the front axle tube correct?

 

yes i believe its called the inner brake line it runs out to the shock mount then goes to a rubber brake line
